PgQue is a pure SQL-based Postgres queue solution that eliminates database bloat and performance degradation issues common in traditional queue implementations by using snapshot-based batching instead of row-level operations. Unlike alternatives requiring C extensions or external daemons, it runs on any managed Postgres platform (AWS RDS, GCP Cloud SQL, Azure, Supabase, etc.) with a single SQL file installation, making it viable for organizations seeking durable event streaming without adding distributed systems complexity. The trade-off is 1-2 second delivery latency versus microsecond-level options, positioning it for high-volume sustained workloads where stability and zero-bloat matter more than sub-second dispatch.
